Personal Space Assessment of the Development of Racial Attitudes in Integrated and Segregated Schools.
Speelman, Diana; Hoffman, Charles D.
Journal of Genetic Psychology, v136 n2 p307-08 Jun 1980
Young White boys in three grade levels, across integrated and segregated classes, used greater projected personal space when they approached a Black child stimulus than when they approached a White child stimulus. Results agree with literature indicating racial attitudes are learned early. It is suggested that integrated classrooms, by themselves, do not influence racial attitudes. (Author/DB)
